Two brothers who woke up to an intruder in their home took matters into their own hands Monday morning, beating the suspected burglar with a baseball bat and stabbing him to death, police said.
A 26-year-old man allegedly broke into a house around 2:45 a.m. Monday in the St. Albans neighborhood of Queens when he encountered the two brothers, ages 16 and 27, FOX5NY reported.
At least one of the men reportedly confronted the man, hit him with a baseball bat and stabbed him. It was unclear if one or both brothers were involved in the incident
Police arrived at the scene to find the alleged burglar, who was not immediately identified, with head trauma and stab wounds to his torso. He was taken to the hospital and pronounced dead.
No arrests have been made and police are investigating the incident.

“Two brothers who woke up to an intruder in their home took matters into their own hands...”
I think there is a fundamental confusion between vigilantism and self-defense on the part of the reporter here. When someone intrudes into your home, the matter has already been thrust into your hands whether you want it or not.
I was hoping it wasn’t in NYC as according to the current mayor criminals are heroes and victims the bad guy but alas it is NYC. May they get a good lawyer. This is a mayor who if you’ll recollect defended the gang made up of illegals who stabbed the 15 year old to death in the Bronx in a case of mistaken identity. Besides the thugs being protected by his sanctuary city crap, his response to this murder was not to call the victims familily to offer condolences but to hold a press conference calling for ICE to be abolished. And they reelected this mofo.
Teddy ....in' Williams knocks it out of the park! Fenway Park on it's feet for Teddy ....in' Ballgame! He went yardo on that one, out to ....in' Lansdowne Street!
Donny Donowitz?
Yep.
Casablanca was in theaters in late 1942. Can only imagine the cheers, laughs, and applause that line got from New York audiences. It’s always been a tough town. Our current President is a product and fine example of the Borough of Queens, one of the neighborhoods Nick was warning Major Strasser about.
The police should thank them.

If they determine the deceased was really an intruder, yes.
He is int heir house.
Break into my house and start making balloon animals or doing the dishes and you are still going to get ventilated for breaking in
Homo hinky is a possibility.
You mean like, was he an actual burglar, or did they beat him up somewhere else and drag him home?
Hot burglaries are becoming more and more dangerous for the burglar. Their professional insurance rates will rise.
What can you do?
Imma bad daddy. My daughter and I use to say this to my boy when he was being a poop head. He turned out ok though but he's still a brat, just bigger now.
“And Shepherds we shall be For thee, my Lord, for thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti.”
The two men killed a multiple democrat voter in NY. Cuomo the commie will probably ask for a death sentence.
Good!
That should discourage other burglars too.
IDK maybe he was in their house and an argument happened and they killed him?
Well, dead men tell no tales. lol
It’s a possible burglar situation it’s just a bat and knives? Strange.
*Swing away Merrill. Merrill, swing away.
Another possibility. Again, could very well be a burglary, but it sounds like an argument or deal that went bad.
